One of the most highly competitive items to bid on

One of the most highly competitive items to bid on at the Mecca Fundraiser is the opportunity to be Mr. Morello for the day. This year we were able to provide two opportunities and Sophia and Dylan did an amazing job on their respective days. Along with being able to teach the classes, they and a friend had a meal delivered to them. La Costa and Chick-fil-A were the choices this year.

Thank you to all who bid and helped make this happen. Thanks to the parents and grandparents who donate items and also bid on items at Mecca. Thanks to all of the money raised at New Mecca, the Bristow Music program has been able to participate in a number of competitions as well as purchase a number of new instruments.

It is hard to believe but the Band Boosters are already starting to think about the next Mecca Feed, which will be February 7, 2024.

Please send a $10 or more gift card with your student and Mr. Morello will et them pick a prize from the candy/chip/taki stash!

A huge thank you to all the chaperones and volunteers that helped with this trip. It couldn't have happened without you!

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to Mecca this year, either by donating goods or services for the auction, coming to the event and purchasing food and drink, and bidding on all the wonderful items. It is because of Mecca that the band had some new instruments to play and the cost of this trip was significantly less.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Just a reminder, Six Flags no longer accepts cash.

Just a reminder, Six Flags no longer accepts cash.

Also, it will be warm on Saturday, so along with packing your tie-die shirt, you might want to have your student change into shorts or something cooler than black pants.

Packing a hat and sunscreen won't hurt either!

Wednesday, April 26th, after school, is the opportunity for the three Wind Ensemble classes to perform together before the Six Flags trip.

Students will rehearse from 1:30 to 3:00. It will be the only opportunity for students to see where they'll be seated in the ensemble, and also to develop a cohesive sound with all three combined classes.

You should have received an email from Mr. Morello yesterday.

Do you have a child in Wind Ensemble or Choir? If so, you should have received a packet regarding the Music in the Parks field trip to Six Flags!

The last day to purchase tickets is Monday, March 20. This will allow time for busses to be ordered and songs to be arranged. The number of students attending will also determine the number of chaperones required.

While this is not a required field trip, it is a tremendous opportunity for these students!
